Questions people ask us
What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2?
Type 1 protects the floor from falling embers only. Type 2 protects against embers and heat, so the heat that comes down and forward from the stove does not pass through the pad into the floor. Hearth Classics tests its hearth pads to meet or exceed UL 1618, the safety standard for floor protectors, wall protectors and hearth extensions.
How do I know which type I need?
Your stove manufacturer's manual tells you. It lists the clearances, whether the floor needs Type 1 or Type 2 protection, and what the floor protector must provide. Choose a pad that meets or exceeds the manual, and follow local codes.
How is the Original Edge different from the Classic Edge?
It is the frame profile. Hearth Classics offers the Original Edge in a 1 inch or 1-1/4 inch frame, and the beveled Classic Edge in the 1-1/4 inch frame. The 1 inch frame is about 30% lighter than other Hearth Classics pads.
Standard or Corner?
A Standard pad sits in front of a stove placed along a flat wall. A Corner pad is the shape for a stove set in the corner of a room. Sizes are given depth by width.
